Bandit, murderer, known to all, seen by none... has he killed a thousand men? Has he saved a dozen worlds? His legend is as large as the Rim itself, his trail as elusive as a wisp of starlight in the empty realms of space. The reward for him is the largest in history.

From Keepsake to Altair, a group of bounty hunters must follow a trail of clues across the Inner Frontier, racing against their rivals, to be the first to track down the Outlaw King.

An adventure for starting bounty hunters using the What's OLD is NEW roleplaying game system, set in the far future.

Welcome to the Dark Decade

The 1980s were a dark time, with the shadow of nuclear annihilation, and the constant give and take of the Cold War, Central American Guerrilla Uprisings, corporate greed and the rise of MTV.

There is, however, another danger, more evasive, but more immediate. There is a dark and supernatural subculture that lives parallel to our own, a world of vampires, ghouls, monsters, mad scientists and demons. Only the heroes—using their divinely inspired, sorcerous, or technological abilities—can keep these hidden, but deadly, forces of evil at bay. This adventure takes place in 1980s New York City, and enmeshes the players deeply into the modern horror genre as vampires and worse prey on the populace.

Includes new Dhampir and Werefolf heritages along with the Vampire Slayer, Demonologist, Exorcist, Guardian, and Sorcerer careers.

The adventure From Dust to Dawn takes the characters from the streets of New York into a dark section of the New York Underground, a hidden corner of the world away from prying eyes, as they track down a dangerous new drug that transforms the youth of today into psychotic killers.

Judge. Jury. Executioner. Play as a Judge of Mega-City One and bust perps, Sov spies, and mutant raiders in this action-packed standalone tabletop roleplaying game, bringing to life the iconic characters and worlds found in the legendary British comic 2000 AD. This book is your introduction to Mega-City One, and your gateway to a line of supplements based on 2000 AD's many characters and settings.

The third season of Warped, the official What's OLD is NEW (WOIN) livestream, launched this past weekend. The first season was a Traveller/Firefly type setting; the second was a Battlestar Galactica/Colonists type thing; and this new third season is a silly, comedic, Orville-esque setting aboard an exploration starship! Warning: mature language from the start!

We've got a big preview of the upcoming Judge Dredd & The Worlds of 2000 AD tabletop roleplaying game today! Take a look at the official character sheet! The core rulebook will contain versions for Judges and for other characters. This is the Judge sheet; the sheet for Perps and Civilians is slightly different.

Here's a wonderful character creation tutorial for WOIN. GM wacksteven walks you though creating a Felan Bounty Hunter for N.E.W., but of course the exact same process applies to O.L.D. and N.O.W. This is a playlist of three videos, coming to about 40 minutes in total. Of course, once you know what you're doing you can whip up a character in under 10 minutes, but wacksteven takes the time here to explain everything carefully and why he is making certain choices. Enjoy!

This manual for the What's O.L.D. is N.E.W. roleplaying game system guides you though the process of designing a game setting based on any time period from the 18th century through the near future. With detailed rules for the creation of organisations, heritages, careers, monsters and villains, and more, along with discussion on genre, theme, and technology, any GM should be able to create their own universe!

Also included are guidelines on running your game, creating campaigns and adventures, and ideas for exciting premises, exotic locations, and interesting events!

Finally, you'll also find a selection of villains and foes, and a short introductory adventure featuring ninjas, a car chase, a mad scientist, and zombies...

This book requires the use of a What's O.L.D. is N.E.W. core rulebook.

Welcome to part one of the critically acclaimed ZEITGEIST adventure path!

In factories throughout the city of Flint, months of ceasless toil by mages, engineers, and shipbuilders have finally concluded. Now well-wishers from across the nation of Risur have come to witness the launch of the world's mightiest vessel of war: the R.N.S. Coaltongue, impervious to spell and cannon and armed with fire that could slay even a dragon. On the docks, constables keep a close eye on celebrants and troublemakers; in the shadows, conspiracy and betrayal threaten this technological titan on its maiden voyage.

Meanwhile, on an island in the lush Yerasol Archipelago, enemy spies put their plans into motion, clouded with secrecy...

The second in the series of alien race sourcebooks is out for What's OLD is NEW fans. The Holds of Vendalyr delves into the mysteries of the (colloquially named) Venetian race, who have colonized the Beehive Cluster, about 180 parsecs from Sol. The PDF is out now, with the softcover coming to DTRPG and Amazon very soon.

DELVE INTO THE MYSTERIES OF THIS ANCIENT RACE!

The Venetians are a long-lived race, with an origin far in the distant past. Advanced science, powerful psionics, and deadly martial prowess are just some of the traits for which this philosophical race is known.

This book contains never-seen-before information about Vendalyr, the Venetian homeworld, along with Venetian culture, law, language, and society.

Their tendrils can be felt everywhere; they push at the edges of the minds of the vulnerable. Let us in, they whisper, let us in. And sometimes, sometimes, we say Yes.

A handful of men and women stand between the world and this ultimate darkness, holding it back however they can. They are Exorcists, imbued with the authority to thrust demons out from the flesh they have made their home and hurl them back into the abyss. But the Exorcists themselves are only human and their adversaries are creatures of unfathomable power and malevolence – every human weakness is an avenue through which a soul might be lost.

How long can they be kept at bay?

How long can the darkness be held back?
